I also use the FN keys extensively each day to control screen brightness, volume and change songs without looking. Almost anyone i have seen use MBP i have seen at some point use the brightness or volume controls without looking. So you don't even have to be using them for some advanced purpose. The panic volume-down with the right hand is a classic. I actually don't quite believe you guys saying that you don't use the built-in functions several times a day - that was the first thing that was annoying to me with the touchbar. That you can't control volume and brightness from pure memory.

Personally, I like controlling the brightness and volume with Touch Bar. If anything, it makes the adjustment more precise. But again, that's a personal preference. It's just so many technologies have changed over the last decades, that a slight variation in how I adjust my backlight doesn't bother me much.
